| Abstract |
As part of environmental regulations and greenhouse reduction measures, electric vehicles and large-capacity ESS are expected to spread, and also the volume of discarded lithium-ion batteries is expected to increase rapidly. The market size of discarded lithium-ion batteries is expected to be 3,364 GWh ($57.4 billion) by 2030. This paper analyzes policies, standards, and R&D trends in major countries (Republic of Korea, the United States, China, Europe, Japan) regarding used Li-batteries, and then propose measures to revitalize the circular economy of Li-batteries while ensuring safety |
